Vers: 57

وَيَجۡعَلُونَ لِلَّهِ ٱلۡبَنَٰتِ سُبۡحَٰنَهُۥ وَلَهُم مَّا يَشۡتَهُونَ

(57) And to Allah they ascribe the daughters – Glory be His! – but to themselves ˹they own˺ what they like ˹most˺!^[3315]

[3315] That is they out of blatant disregard used to claim that the angels were God Almighty’s daughters, while they claimed the sons, whom they liked most, for themselves (cf. al-Ṭabarī, al-Qurṭubī, Ibn Kathīr, al-Saʿdī): “So inquire of them, ˹O Muhammad˺,: “Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons. *Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnesses?” Unquestionably, it is out of their ˹invented˺ falsehood that they say” *“Allah has begotten!”—indeed, they are liars!” (37: 149-152).
